it’s 2016 again and I just quit my 9-5 job working 80 hrs/wk for a meal prep start-up in Austin who told me to choose between my blog or them (& my boss threatened me if I ever quit, he’d make sure I’d never get a job again) within a few months… 〰️ my house was selected for an IKEA makeover 〰️ IKEA ran the makeover as ad sharing my story in Instyle Magazine & O Magazine 〰️ then flew me to LA to film a commercial on the Oprah Winfrey Network 〰️ I hosted a food crawl at SXSW with 10,000 rsvps 〰️ face of Miami tourism on the New York Times If you need a sign in 2026 to take a chance on yourself, let this be it ⚡️ austin influencer | austin content creator | new year resolutions
